Clann-nighean Afganach be貌 nam balaich airson gum bi saorsa aca. Afghan girls living as boys.
Tha iad aithnichte mar na 'Bacha Posh' a tha a' ciallachadh clann-nighean le aodach balaich orra. Tha na m矛ltean aca ann an Afganastan - clann nighean 貌ga a' coiseachd timcheall ann an aodach balaich. Tha seann traidisean Afganach a' toirt cead do ph脿rantan aon den chloinn nighean aca a thionndadh na bhalach, ma dh' fheumas iad. Tha t貌rr adhbharan aca airson seo a dh猫anamh: mar eisimpleir, aig toiseach na linne a chaidh seachad, dh' 貌rdaich teaghlach an R矛gh Habibullah gun cuireadh aon den chloinn-nighean aca aodach balaich oirre airson na boireannaich a dh矛on. An-diugh, tha cead aig p脿rantan gun oighre fireann aon den chloinn- nighean aca a thionndadh nam 'bacha posh'. Le aodach balaich oirre, faodaidh an nighean an taigh fh脿gail gun str矛 sam bith gus rudan riatanach a cheannach agus airson a bhith ag obair. 'S e traidisean a th' ann a chaidh a dhealbh airson teaghlaichean gun mhic a dh矛on.
'S e cothrom a th' ann am 'bacha posh', clann nighean a chumail be貌 agus airson gum faigh iad air adhart ann an coimhearsnachd far a bheil creideamh an Talabain a' toirt buaidh agus far nach eil boireannaich a' faighinn an 脿ite a bu ch貌ir dhaibh fhaighinn.
They're called the 'Bacha Posh', which literally translated means 'girls dressed as boys'. There are thousands of them in Afghanistan-young girls walking around in boy's clothing. An old Afghan tradition gives the parents the right to 'transform' one of their female children into a boy, if the need arises. And those needs are many: for example, at the beginning of the last century, the family of King Habibullah ordered one of their girls to dress like a boy in order to protect the harem. Today, parents without a male heir have the right to convert one of their girl children into 'bacha posh'.
